Archbee is tightening the controls around docs it already publishes, not changing what docs are.
Archbee's recent entries are small, concrete additions to its documentation editor and publishing layer: RSS feeds for hybrid and password-protected spaces, export straight from the editor, team-level SAML and OIDC inheritance, and branch history and navigation fixes. Public docs can now return Markdown responses, and PDF output gained navigable bookmarks. None of it changes the product's category; it reduces friction for teams already running docs on it.
Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.
Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.

Two threads stand out. Branching keeps getting attention (history, navigation, per-branch icons), which points to docs managed like code with review before publish. Access control is moving up to the team level, so larger organizations can administer many spaces without repeating SSO setup for each one.
Expect more branch-workflow and team-admin work; the Markdown responses for public docs hint at machine-readable output, but the entries are too thin to say whether that grows into a larger feature.

Skedda is shifting from a booking front end to a source of workplace attendance data. Companion's MDM rollout aims at complete presence coverage, which makes the occupancy analytics and API more valuable as more laptops report in.
Expect occupancy and presence data to reach the API, since Skedda said more API capabilities are planned and Companion now feeds richer attendance data.
